Hello everyone! I too am unexplained! Specifically secondary unexplained. Heres my story: I have a 3 year old son we conceived after 9 months of trying and 2nd clomid cycle. Really thought it would be just like this the 2nd time around. That was 2 years ago. We have been at it for 2 whole years now consistently trying. You name it ive done it. This time around Ive done 9 months of clomid, 1 month of femara, 7 IUI's, including 1 injectable cycle with IUI and of course tried the accupuncture and herbs! NOTHING! We even took several months off to try to rest and "JUST RELAX" Hence my screen name and what do you know that didnt work either. We just completed our first IVF cycle and got BFN!!! Of Course. My RE is wonderful I dont know what I would do without him! Hes so supportive and great but I dont think he has anything left for me except another IVF. We have an IVF follow up appt with him on wed. So I think I will take some time off. Im doing herbs, yoga and wheat grass shots (YUK!!) and overall trying to stay healthy and make my baby maker a wonderful place to be!! I know I will have another baby its just a matter of time. Just remember, you are in charge of your own destiny. There is nothing that we cant have, do, or be. Good luck to everyone and I pray for people like you and I every night for great things to happen for us!!!

PS Im glad someone started this thread! I dont get on the IVF forum anymore since Im done with that...For now!

Hi Ladies,
I am happy to have found this thread. I was feeling like the only one going thru unexplained. All my friends suffering from infertility and those that conquered it dont really understand. They think I am lucky that the docs havent found any issues. Lucky? Arrgggh
Anyway, here's my story. 35 yo, TTC 8 yrs, Never been pregnant, several IUIs, 6 IVFs cycles, 1 DonorEgg cycle, 2 FET DonorEgg cycles...not even a chemical. All tests normal.
I met with yet another RE today and he suggested a work up for 'implantation failure' before I even attempt another cycle. I dont really know much about 'implantation failure' testing. If anybody knows about it, please share.
Sometimes I wish the doctors would tell me something was wrong. I am so exhausted of trying but I cant seem to move on.
Sorry for being a downer but today was like re-living all the BFNs, appts, $, stress and tears. I know tomorrow will be better. Thanks for listening.
I wish you all peace and babydust.

I'm so glad I found this website, I feel as though everyone here knows exactly what i'm talkign about and going through. Here's my situation:
In our first year we conceived purely by accident, but they found out it was ectopic and had to abort to prevent the tube bursting. I was really cut up about it and never really got over it, till 2 year later we coneived again, and i was 6 weeks before they found out it was ectopic and ruptured. Only this time it ruptured and I nearly died. Now its been a year and a half since that happened, and after doctoirs guaranteeing i'd be pregnant last year JUNE, it's now nearly another year, and nothing has happened. My little sister has just fallen pregnant after a one night stand and I'm not coping and nobody seems to understand why. They told me to get over the loss, told me stop trying - which i've done, i've actually given up hope, but I'm hurting so badly by all of this. Everyone thinks I'm crazy, over-reacting, selfish because i don't do baby showers - I actuallly avoid babies altogether because everytime I'm reminded about what i could've had and don't.

I'm 26 and my husband is 31.
We both desperately want to start a family, but it juist honestly seems like its never going to happen.

I too have unexplained infertility and find it incredably frustrating. My DH and I have been ttc for 4 yrs. We did medications and timed intercoarse and IUI with no luck. I would much rather have a reason and be able to try to fix it than have no reason at all. Good news is, after all we have done, we just did our first cycle of IVF and it worked. First try and only one egg implanted. 9 wks preggo now. So there is hope. It does kinda make me wonder more though what the problem is b/c this worked so well. Good luck to you.
